# How to SSH into your instance

## 1. Deploy a Cloud GPU

Configure a GPU on our [Marketplace](https://marketplace.tensordock.com/order_list) based on cost, RAM, storage, and vCPUs. To use SSH, ensure that you have a port forwarded to port 22. To use Ubuntu, select your version for your installation. Make sure your storage matches your operating system's requirements.

Congratulations! You have now SSHed into your server and have access to the power needed for your own usage. At any time, you can quit your connection with the command `exit`.
